A quick and easy iced espresso drink combining the rich caramel sweetness of brown sugar with bold espresso, shaken to a frothy perfection and smoothed out with creamy oat milk. Perfect for a refreshing caffeine boost on warm days.
Use freshly ground medium roast coffee beans for best flavor. Shake about 15 seconds to achieve frothy texture without diluting the coffee. Dissolve brown sugar in warm espresso to avoid gritty bits. Barista-style oat milk froths better and adds creaminess. If no shaker is available, a tightly sealed mason jar works well. Adjust sweetness by varying brown sugar or substituting with maple syrup or agave. For a hot version, warm espresso and brown sugar mixture and add warmed oat milk without shaking.
